Hi Martha!

I am going to Guizhou in a month and hope to spend about two weeks in Yangshuo on the way back. Any recommendations about where to stay and where not to stay, cooking classes, language classes?

Thanks :)

Your trip looks like it was great! I just have a question for you since I didn't see this mentioned in your postings - how did you make your way from Hong Kong to Vietnam? Train? Air?
